Nicely done John! Your videos are such a treasure to the MKII Supra community! That is really awesome that Billy is printing so many awesome goodies for our cars too.
Hello fellow sunroofers, i have a question. I bought billys clips but i dont think thats it. When i press the button down the one side opens and closes (with no sunroof panel on) and the other side starts to go back then stops and goes grrrrr. It moves forwards but does not back past the close mark
7:03 time stamp. Great video. I am following along very closely. However, messed up at this step. I burned off the right amount of plastic, but I twisted the cable off completely, instead of just the outer cover. Do I need another cable or do I have enough to go another length of the new bracket? I dont know how much spare cable they ran on this. Thanks.
I am trying to replace my guides, but my old ones do not have the long pins with splines (the ones you said not to insert using a hammer and insert smooth end first) Are they truly needed? If so do you know the dimensions so I can try and make some?
I accessed the provided link, but it took me to Bill’s Facebook page. I don’t see any other links point to Billy’s store. Both of the plastic pieces are shattered and need replacement.Any help is appreciated.
My man, thank you for the video this is just what I need to fix my RA65 celica, I was about to seal shut my moon roof now I dont have too. Can you show a video on how to fix that little padding that is above the gauge cluster and attach to the dash that would be great that's my next issue to fix. Thanks again awesome job.
Its wear the gauges go in and it's in front of the steering wheel, also your cruise control button is there on one side and your defroster on the other side
@@unxpected8012 I had a feeling that's what you were talking about. How bad is yours? Cracked or broken? Mine is hidden under a dash cover so I don't even remember it's condition.
Billy still makes them. He's very busy so you may have to follow up with him. An alternative is 3d-gem.com. Here's a direct link: www.3d-gem.com/product-page/82-85-celica-and-supra-sun-roof-guide-brackets
I tried to contact Billy about these replacement pieces for the cable but I never got a response. Do you have another way to contact him to get these pieces ?
awesome thanks for video! i have a 1985 celica gt the problem i am having is....after driving or letting the car run for a bit i have a hard time geting it to restart it will but takes many tries....note once it has been sitting awhile and engine is cooled down will start instantly anybody has suggestions let me know .
@@johnsneverendinglistofrand1377 Thank you so much for making this video. I have an 84 Celica with sunroof and the clips on both sides have broken. Did you get a source for making the clips? I have just tried to contact Billy but have not herd back from him.
Send a message to Billy. I linked his Facebook page in the description. He might not reply immediately since there are tons of people asking for these parts and there might be a wait list.

Ah yes, dear Billy printed sun roof guides. That's perfect for me since i will have to do it too one day.
Just got done doing this repair on my 85 Celica GTS, sunroof works mint! thank you for this video and thanks to Billy for the parts.
Fantastic video
I couldn't thank you enough for pulling this one video 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Superb video John!
Nice instructional video
John, this is useful. I'll open my are and see if it's similar. I need the motor replace.
They should be pretty similar.

You should still be able to use it as it is. Just pack it with JB weld and make sure it's completely cured before you install it.

"I think" those pins apply spring load to assist with the sunroof when it initially opens.
Hi John, can you post the link for Billy’s page? Thanks for sharing the video.
Link is in the video description.

Send him a DM. He'll respond once he has time.
nice job.
That was great 👍 thanks ,, any idea what is wrong if my roof keeps clicking like a machine gun ??
Wild guess...bad motor gear or cables aren't evenly distributed.
@@johnsneverendinglistofrand1377 i f i cant close the roof by hand with the motor removed does that imply that the problem is in the cables??
@@nedved1999 sounds like it's stuck somewhere. The cables are small so I don't see them being the cause for it being stuck. Did it slide open smooth?

Which part is the paddle? The removable hood for the gauge cluster?

I'm trying to get these two parts. I tried to message your friend on Facebook but no reply. Do you have any other leads to help me out.
Yeah. I just sent in a sample to 3D-gems. They're working on making the slides.
